Paperback. Condition: New. A key theme in the anthropology of beliefs is the relationship between socio-economic change and changes in the belief system. It has been widely argued that rapid economic change, particularly the introduction of capitalism, leads to an increase in beliefs in, and representations of, evil and the devi…l. These beliefs, it is argued, constitute forms of resistance to, or rejection of, "modernity." This volume builds on these arguments, suggesting that rather than an indigenous resistance to capitalism, such representations signal a profound moral ambivalence towards the socio-economic process inherent in capitalist economy. Using a range of examples, from Surinamese zombies to American horror films, it demonstrates the extent to which evil imagery is linked to a fear of excess, particularly in situations where people find themselves, or perceive themselves, to be peripheral to the centers of political, economic, and cultural power.

Paperback. Condition: New. In its assessment of the current "state of play" of ethnographic practice in social anthropology, this volume explores the challenges that changing social forms and changing understandings of "the field" pose to contemporary ethnographic methods. These challenges include the implications of the remarka…ble impact social anthropology is having on neighboring disciplines such as history, sociology, cultural studies, human geography and linguistics, as well as the potential 'costs' of this success for the discipline. Contributors also discuss how the ethnographic method is influenced by current institutional contexts and historical "traditions" across a range of settings. Here ethnography is featured less as a methodological "tool-box" or technique but rather as a subject on which to reflect.

paperback. Condition: Very Good. Powers of Good and Evil: Social Transformation and Popular Belief explores how societies interpret moral forcesâ"both benevolent and malevolentâ"and how these beliefs shape cultural change. Paul Clough examines witchcraft, spirit possession, healing traditions, and religious movements to show how… ideas of good and evil influence social behaviour, identity, and power structures. Drawing on anthropology, history, and case studies from around the world, he reveals how moral narratives can drive both conflict and transformation. A thought-provoking resource for readers interested in anthropology, sociology, and the dynamics of belief in everyday life.
